- DirectorTim BurtonStarsMichael KeatonDanny DeVitoMichelle PfeifferWhile Batman deals with a deformed man calling himself the Penguin wreaking havoc across Gotham with the help of a cruel businessman, a female employee of the latter becomes the Catwoman with her own vendetta.This is my all-time favorite film for reasons that are too numerous to mention here.
- DirectorClive DonnerStarsGeorge C. ScottFrank FinlayAngela PleasenceA bitter old miser who rationalizes his uncaring nature learns real compassion when three spirits visit him on Christmas Eve.My all-time favorite adaptation of my favorite book. It's also the one that moved me the most emotionally.
- DirectorJonathan LynnStarsEileen BrennanTim CurryMadeline KahnSix guests are anonymously invited to a strange mansion for dinner, but after their host is killed, they must cooperate with the staff to identify the murderer as the bodies pile up.Perhaps my favorite comedy, period.
- DirectorBrian HensonStarsTim CurryBilly ConnollyJennifer SaundersThe Muppets set sail in search of treasure, with Jim Hawkins and Long John Silver.The one Muppet movie that is not only the most solid in it's pacing, but also has the most fun and adventure to offer. It also contains one of Tim Curry's best performances. You also can't go wrong with Billy Connolly.
- DirectorWolfgang ReithermanStarsPhil HarrisSebastian CabotLouis PrimaBagheera the Panther and Baloo the Bear have a difficult time trying to convince a boy to leave the jungle for human civilization.My favorite Disney animated film. It's also the funniest and contains not only one of my favorite Disney songs ("Trust in Me") but also has one of the funniest, most dysfunctional Disney families you'll ever see: Baloo, Bagheera, and Mowgli.
- DirectorRichard MarquandStarsMark HamillHarrison FordCarrie FisherAfter rescuing Han Solo from Jabba the Hutt, the Rebel Alliance attempt to destroy the second Death Star, while Luke struggles to help Darth Vader back from the dark side.The most satisfying "Star Wars" film (sorry, Empire fans). It's also the most rousing, emotional and satisfying overall. Sebastian Shaw steals the show with a powerful perfomance as the redeemed Darth Vader.
- DirectorGreg FordFriz FrelengChuck JonesStarsMel BlancMel TorméRoy FirestoneDaffy Duck opens a detective agency for the supernatural along side his Looney Toon buddies.The funniest Looney Tunes film, this is more then a mere clip show. It's a gathering of some very funny 80's riffs and some really underrated gems featuring Daffy.
- DirectorTim BurtonStarsJohnny DeppMartin LandauSarah Jessica ParkerAmbitious but troubled movie director Edward D. Wood Jr. tries his best to fulfill his dreams despite his lack of talent.A very funny and surprisingly touching look at the Worst Director of All-Time.
- DirectorVictor FlemingKing VidorStarsJudy GarlandFrank MorganRay BolgerYoung Dorothy Gale and her dog Toto are swept away by a tornado from their Kansas farm to the magical Land of Oz, and embark on a quest with three new friends to see the Wizard, who can return her to her home and fulfill the others' wishes.The ultimate fantasy film. Very frequently ripped-off, parodied and "lovingly homaged" this has been never been and probably never will be topped, let alone outmatched.
- DirectorJohn HughesStarsSteve MartinJohn CandyLaila RobinsA Chicago advertising man must struggle to travel home from New York for Thanksgiving, with a lovable oaf of a shower-curtain-ring salesman as his only companion.Steve Martin's best film and Candy's best performance, this buddy/road comedy has everything I could ever want from it. I will always feel that Candy was robbed of an Oscar nomination.
